Trauma Surgery
Injuries to bones, joints, muscles, and ligaments can be painful, limiting, and emotionally challenging. Whether from accidents, surgery, or overuse, recovery takes more than time—it takes understanding.
With compassion and clinical experience, I offer personalized support to help you heal, regain strength, and restore function. My approach combines evidence-based care with a deep respect for your individual journey, ensuring you feel heard, supported, and empowered every step of the way
